Monday December 16, 2024, almost two years since the arrest of comrades Aldo and Lucas Hernandez, during the raids carried out in the context of the investigation into the bomb detonated at the National Gendarmerie Headquarters, the Santiago 10th Court of Guarantees cited the fulfillment of the preparation hearing of the oral trial.

Berlin,Germany : Burning of Siemens car in solidarity responded to the call for days of action in memory of Kyriakos X and in solidarity with those persecuted in the Ampelokipoi case

On the morning of December 31, 2024, we responded to the call for days of action in memory of Kyriakos X and in solidarity with those persecuted in the Ampelokipoi case and destroyed a Siemens vehicle in Berlin-Baumschulenweg with a time-delayed incendiary device. Unfortunately, other vehicles also caught fire in the course of this, which is regrettable.

Siemens has been trying to improve its image in recent years. Withdrawing from some of its armaments sectors and investing in the renewable energy sector was intended to give the company a clean, green and politically correct face.

INTERNATIONAL WEEK OF ACTION 10-16 JANUARY 2025 FOR THE COMRADES OF THE REVOLUTIONARY STRUGGLE POLA ROUPA & NIKOS MAZIOTIS (Greece)

EVERY REBEL HEART, A REVOLUTIONARY STRUGGLE

Practical solidarity: In the face of the world of the state, the bosses and the horrors of their wars, we stand in solidarity with the condemned comrades of Revolutionary Struggle, Pola Roupa and Nikos Maziotis, who through the ranks and action of the organization Revolutionary Struggle, fought steadfastly and uncompromisingly on the side of the class oppressed by the violence and terror of economic exploitation, poverty and political extermination in the sweatshops of wage slavery. With consistency and dedication to the struggle for social revolution, the comrade and comrade took on the political responsibility of their participation in the organisation, as befits guerrilla dignity and revolutionary consistency.

They did not review and defended politically, one by one, the 18 armed and bombing actions undertaken by the Revolutionary Struggle, one by one, on high-important symbols and infrastructures of the state and capital, from 2003 to 2018, achieving significant blows to the correlations of domination: Ministries – of Economy and of Employment -, Evelpidon Courts, Police Departments, Police Officers and riot police, Minister of Public Order, US Embassy, Stock Exchange, Bank of Greece – branch of the European Central Bank – office of the International Monetary Fund in Greece, banks – Citibank, Eurobank -, up to the attempted escape of comrade Nikos Maziotis and other prisoners from the Korydallos prison by helicopter (hijacking), which was personally undertaken by comrade Pola Roupa.

Thessaloniki, Greece : Greeting to the memorial for anarchist comrade Alfredo M. Bonanno in Carrara, Italy en/it

To the comrades of Carrara, who will honour the memory and struggle of anarchist revolutionary Alfredo M. Bonanno at the Circolo Culturale Anarchico ”Gogliardo Fiaschi” on December 8th 2024.

Comrades,

By raising our insurgent fists from the Greek metropolis, we welcome your initiative to honour the memory of the comrade Alfredo M. Bonanno. A few kilometres away from you, the answer to the question “Why is it necessary to highlight the historicality of the work of the comrade Alfredo”, lies in the simplest of concepts: the constant need of a free person to revolt against misery and the constant necessity for the world of poverty to be completely destroyed.

At a time of political retreat and reform, it is our collective duty to undo the natural death of a comrade, giving breath and vibrancy to the propositions that characterized his life and his passing from every field of struggle. To fight radically and with a point of aggression, to sharpen the conflict in all the fields of social antagonism. To fight to win, not moments, but the totality of freedom.

RESPONSIBILITY CLAIM//HONOUR TO COMRADE KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS (Athens,Greece)

RESPONSIBILITY CLAIM//HONOUR TO COMRADE KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS

It was a long road to get here. Very long, my brother. The handcuffs weighed heavily on the hands. The evenings when the little light bulb shook its head saying “time’s over”. We read the history of the world in small names, in some dates carved with a fingernail on the prison walls, in some childish drawings of the future dead – a heart, a bow, a ship that surely tore through time. In some verses that were left in the middle so that we could finish them, in some verses that were finished so that we wouldn’t finish them. It was a long road to get here – a difficult road. Now this road is yours. You hold it like you hold your friend’s hand and measure his pulse on the mark left by the handcuffs. Normal pulse – Sure hand – Sure road.
Y.Ritsos    (Γ.Ρίτσος) 

On 31/10, an explosive device exploded in an apartment on Arkadias Street in Ampelokipi, resulting in the death of anarchist comrade KYRIAKOS XYMITIRIS and the injury of anarchist comrade Marianna M. In the following days, a media show followed, usual for Greek conditions, which showed the way for what would follow from the counter-terrorism and the authorities in general. The state as a whole, with the cooperation of the cops-media-judicial authorities, presents the well-played scenarios about the revival of domestic terrorism, enriching them, so that the crowd watching does not get bored, with the description of ”third generation terrorism”. All of this has already led to the pre-trial detention of 5 comrades.

For our part, first of all we do not accept the term terrorism when it comes to urban guerrilla warfare and general political violence. For us, terrorism is living below the poverty line, exorbitant rents, exorbitant bills, gentrification and redevelopment, police brutality, non-functional trains, and guns that fire in the air.

GREECE : FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE FUND FOR PRISONERS AND PROSECUTED REVOLUTIONARIES.

FOR THE SUPPORT OF THE FUND FOR PRISONERS AND PROSECUTED REVOLUTIONARIES.

Comrades and friends,

The Solidarity Fund for Imprisoned and Persecuted Revolutionaries was “born” 14 years ago from within the ranks of the anarchist/anti-authoritarian movement. From then until today the Fund has had an uninterrupted and diverse presence in the history of the movement in Greece. From the open, nationwide assembly of the structure, dozens of comrades have passed through and actively participated, while today the Fund consists of two sub-assemblies, in Athens and Thessaloniki. Throughout these years, the structure of the Fund has provided material support to dozens of political prisoners and persecuted revolutionaries. And it has managed to do this continuously and on a monthly basis. In addition to the financial support to the prisoners, captives of the social/class war, the structure attempts to support politically the comrades who are inside the walls, with events all over Greece, solidarity actions, presence in the adjacent courts.

As a Solidarity Fund we are made of the flesh of the radical movement. The people who participate in its assemblies come from it and act politically within it. The resources of the structure are resources that come from the practical solidarity of our political milieu ( in Greece and abroad) with prisoners. Through our publications, our events of all kinds, we try to raise the necessary funds for the monthly financial support of our incarcerated comrades. At the same time, a significant part of the material support comes from contributions from groups, collectives, individuals within and outside Greece. The structure is, in this way, another link between the movement and political prisoners, one of the “bodies” that the movement itself has created as another constant point of reference for the multifaceted solidarity it has shown towards them over time.

International Call for action days 30.12-01.01: In memory of Kyriakos X and in solidarity with the persecuted of the Ampelokipoi case [eng, ger, gr, esp, cat]

Assembly in memory of K.X. and in solidarity with the persecuted comrades in the Ampelokipoi case

On the 31st of October, in an explosion in an apartment in Athens, the anarchist comrade Kyriakos Xymitiris fell in the battle for social and class liberation. The anarchist comrade Marianna suffered severe injuries, after being treated at Evangelismos Hospital under constant police surveillance, she was transferred on Friday 15/11 to Korydallos Prison. In the aftermath of what happened on 31st October, the comrades Dimitra Z, Dimitris, Nikos R. and A.K have been imprisoned as well in the pre-detention prison in Korydallos. The five comrades have been charged under the anti-terrorism law 187A: formation and membership of a terrorist organization, explosion and supply, possession and manufacture of explosives, damage to private property.

The pressure exerted by the Greek anti-terror unit, working hand in hand with the interrogator in charge of the case, led to the early discharge of comrade Marianna from the hospital, with the management of Evaggelismos hospital not holding responsibility for their patient. As with every prison in the world, Korydallos is a place ruled by mistreatment and harsh conditions. The women’s section of the prison is even more neglected than the men’s section, making it a faithful copy of the patriarchal society in which we live. This torture inflicted on the comrade is rooted in the most classic practices of Western patriarchy, which is enslaving and colonial. The stripping of subjectivity and manipulation of bodies as objects, by force, is a historical practice of white patriarchy. This tries, through European states, to create the myth of an external enemy—an enemy of color, with a different alphabet. However, it is clear that patriarchy is a current enemy coming from the Western world, and is seen in the mistreatment to which the comrade and many other imprisoned individuals are being subjected.

 In mid-October, 4 people were arrested in several parts of France, on the street during targeted arrests or at their home at 6 am. Each was driven to Toulouse to undergo up to 94 hours in custody as part of an investigation for “association of malefactors” related to the struggle against the A69. After being held, Louna was the only person charged and sent to pre-trial detention (PD). She is accused of having destroyed an excavator with an explosive substance and criminal conspiracy with a view to destruction with dangerous means.

The 31st of october 2024, our anarchist comrade Kyriakos has been killed by a bomb that exploded in an apartment in Athens. Another comrade, Marianna, was seriously injured by the explosion.

Marianna spent two weeks in hospital, where she had to fight not only her heavy injuries but also the torture from the greek anti-terror-cops, who did – unsuccesfully – try to get whatever information out of her.
